FA Sunday Cup

how high up in the  divs in our league do you have to be  to enter the fa sunday cup?

Prem only

Thank You

Don't mention that to the pothunters though, they'll all want to change teams again.

Hoskins were never or never would have been a prem side and they entered the fa sunday cup 2yrs ago,think it's prem and 1 but not 100% sure

Division 1 definitely invited as well.

Sileby Athletic were in Div 1 and we applied and got in (got a poor draw though)

Been informed 2day, thurmaston wmp have entered a team

Heard Thurmaston were folding. Obviously BS then!

Total bs

Star & Garter and Sparta Moshdock have also applied

Did all our sides get accepted?

I circulate entry details to our Premier and D1 teams, although I accept the movement of St Marks was too late in this respect this season.

It is down to the FA whether a team is accepted. With FC Hoskins, a couple of seasons back, being a D1 team at the time I had to argue a case with the FA for their inclusion - successfully as it turned out.

I have not been notified of the entry list yet, neither can I see any reference to it, or a draw on the FA website

We were told we get notified on 19th August,

This has now been changed and we'll find out if we have been accepted, along with the 1st round draw, on 5th September.

What's the best performance by an alliance team in recent years?

Biased but... Polska got battered by a strong side in Birmingham called Mackadown yet somehow won 2-1. And when I say battered I mean battered!

Second half we did, first was quite even as I remember

    

good first half and a great goal by a certain debutant!

2

     

first one was better  

remember the half time team talk? theirs I meant as we could hear every word. manager was not a happy bunny

What time does this draw take place? Any website that you can check it on?

It is supposed to be today. I have been googling it but Can't find any information and then I read on twitter that it is actually tomorrow.

I don't know what to believe!!

guessing it's too late to enter then?

our manager missed the boat on this one or we would have applied

Its a great day out if you get the right draw. Make sure you get yourselves in next season.

Yeah you needed to enter by 1st August

I missed the deadline last season and took endless stick!!!

It is the Club Secretary to whom the information is sent.

A home draw. ABSOLUTELY DEVASTATED

Or absolutely skint!  

It's going to be a dear one.

48 miles between the 2 postcodes. 40p per mile per car maximum of 4 and that's just the opposition.

Then pitch and ref costs oh and they are pretty useful, having finished runnners up in there league and they won the cup.

Anyway we knew it'd be tough before we entered and the risk was always there, we know it now, we need to get prepared.
